The National Garden Scheme is waking up for spring and after a long winter lockdown we couldn’t be more happy to get out and explore. All gardens are pre booked tickets only which you can purchase on the NGS website www.ngs.org.uk

GARDENS OPENING IN THE VALE THIS WEEKEND;

Slade Gardens, Southerndown - Saturday 1st & Sunday 2nd May 10.00am - 5.00pm. £5 adults, children free.

Hidden away Slade garden is an unexpected jewel to discover next to the sea with views overlooking the Bristol Channel. The garden tumbles down a valley protected by a belt of woodland. In front of the house are delightful formal areas, a rose and clematis pergola and herbaceous borders. From terraces lawns great sweeps of grass stretch down the hill enlivened by spring bulbs and fritillaries.
